Management’s Discussion and Analysis December 31, 2021

April 28, 2022

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (“MD&A”)

The following discussion and analysis is prepared by Management as of April 28, 2022 and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021”) available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Wescan Goldfields Inc. (“Wescan” or “the Company”) prepared its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). All currency amounts are quoted in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated.

Overview

Wescan is a growth oriented mineral exploration company based in Saskatchewan. Wescan is focused on the exploration of its current portfolio of gold properties and the acquisition of new exploration targets. The Company has previously focused exploration efforts on its northern Saskatchewan properties with known gold mineralization located in the La Ronge Gold Belt. No exploration programs were carried out during the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company will also continue to evaluate the potential for the acquisition of other mineral properties that fit the Company’s strategic direction.

Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, the Government of Saskatchewan waived expenditure requirements for active mineral claims and leases. As a result, the Company was not required to incur expenditures on certain of the Company’s mineral properties during 2021 to keep these claims in good standing.

Projects

Jojay Gold Project

Background

The Company holds a 100% interest in the Jojay gold property, consisting of five claim blocks covering 1,496 hectares located approximately 150 kilometers northeast of La Ronge, Saskatchewan. The Company’s initial 25% interest in the property was acquired from Star Diamond Corporation (formerly Shore Gold Inc.) in 2004 in exchange for shares of the Company. The remaining 75% was acquired from SSR Mining Inc. (formerly Claude Resources Inc.) in 2006 in exchange for shares. The Company has an Indicated Mineral Resource and Inferred Mineral Resource, as defined under National Instrument (“NI”) 43101, on the Jojay gold deposit which was completed on February 4, 2010. The NI 43-101 compliant Mineral Resource Estimate completed by ACA Howe International Limited (“ACA Howe”) includes 21 Wescan diamond drill holes completed in 2005 and 2007-2008 and 79 historic drill holes. At a block cut-off grade of 2.0 grams per tonne Au, non-diluted Indicated Mineral Resources, located entirely in the Red Zone, amount to 420,000 tonnes with an average grade of 3.7 grams per tonne Au, for 50,000 ounces gold. Non-diluted Inferred Mineral Resources, approximately half of which were located in the Red Zone, amount to 630,000 tonnes with an average grade of 4.3 grams per tonne Au, for 87,000 ounces gold. No Measured Mineral Resources or Mineral Reserves of any category were identified. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and by NI 43-101 definition do not

demonstrate economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of the Mineral Resource will be converted into a Mineral Reserve.

Based on recommendations from a review of historical drilling data that was completed in February 2011 and the recommendations contained in the Technical Report that accompanied the NI 43-101 compliant Resource Estimate, Wescan commenced a 2,678.5 metre drill program (10 holes) in June 2011. The program successfully identified significant mineralized zones outside the existing drill-defined area of mineralization and successfully confirmed, as well as infilled, historical drilling results.

Current year and future activities

No activity occurred on the Jojay property during the year ended December 31, 2021. Management is currently assessing options for future work on this property.

Munro Lake Gold Project

Background

The Company holds a 100% interest in the Munro Lake gold property. The Munro Lake property consists of mineral dispositions covering 2,489 hectares located approximately 128 kilometers northeast of La Ronge, Saskatchewan. The Company’s initial 51% interest in the property was acquired from Star Diamond Corporation in 2004 in exchange for shares of the Company and has increased to 100% based on non-participation of the former joint venture partner in past exploration programs. Munro Lake is located approximately seven kilometers from a producing gold mine and is on trend with other known gold mineralized zones in the area. Limited historical exploration work has been performed on Munro Lake.

During 2011 the Company conducted a magnetic and electromagnetic airborne geophysical survey on the Munro Lake property. The intent of the airborne geophysical survey was to assist in the interpretation of historic soil sampling and prospecting programs that had identified anomalous gold targets throughout the property. During 2013, the Company announced the results of a winter drill program on the Munro Lake property which consisted of 1,052.34 metres of diamond drilling over 4 holes. Drilling results included an interval of 67.1 g/t Au over 1.00 metres in a vein with associated visible gold as well as 7.1 g/t Au over 1.00 metres.

Current year and future activities

No activity occurred on the Munro property during the year ended December 31, 2021. Management is currently assessing options for future work on this property.

Jasper Gold Project

Background

The Company holds a 100% interest in the Fork Lake/Jasper/Tamar (“Jasper”) gold property, consisting of certain mineral dispositions covering 6,513 hectares located approximately 150 kilometers northeast of La Ronge, Saskatchewan. The property contains the high grade Jasper Gold Mine which mined and milled 140,127 tonnes at an average grade of 18.9 grams per tonne in the early 1990s. The Company’s initial interest in the property was acquired from Star Diamond Corporation in 2004 in exchange for shares of

the Company. The Company performed drilling in 2005, 2006, and 2007 of certain deeper zones and during 2011 the Company completed a 2,313.5 metre drill program (9 holes) to further assess the future potential of this past producing gold mine. During 2013 the Company performed a drill program to further evaluate the Jasper property. This program was carried out following examination of Wescan’s 2005, 2006 & 2011 diamond drill programs on the Jasper property and recommendations of the Technical Report for the Jasper Gold Project, completed by A.C.A. Howe International dated November 30, 2005.

The Company intends to continue exploration efforts on the Jasper Gold deposit before an NI 43-101 Resource Estimate is completed to maximize any potential mineral resources.

Current year and future activities

No activity occurred on the Jasper property during the year ended December 31, 2021. Management is currently assessing options for future work on this property.

(1) Net losses for the quarters reflects normal operations of the Company. The net loss for second quarter of 2021 has been adjusted to reflect share-based compensation of $70,710 as disclosed in note 14 to the annual audited consolidated financial statements.

(2) Basic and diluted.

Fourth Quarter Results

For the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a net loss of $14,471 ($0.00 per share) compared to a net loss of $14,262 ($0.00 per share) during the same period in 2020.

Related Party Transactions

During 2021 and 2020, Mr. Kenneth E. MacNeill (Chief Executive Officer) through his consulting company, waived his management fees.

Total compensation paid to key management personnel, including amounts paid or payable to related parties owned by key management personnel, executive officers and directors, was $62,160 (2020 - $0). These amounts relate to the share-based payments and have been included in administration expense on the statement of loss and comprehensive loss. The fair value of share-based payments was determined using the Black-Scholes model.

Liquidity

As at December 31, 2021, the Company had a working capital deficit of $17,465 compared to working capital of $44,333 at December 31, 2020. Included in the working capital deficit at December 31, 2021 are payables and accrued liabilities of $22,321 (2020 - $17,360).

The Company currently has no ongoing source of revenue and, as such, is dependent upon the issuance of new equity to finance its ongoing obligations and to advance its exploration properties, such as the $350,000 equity financing completed by the Company during the first quarter of 2022. Although the Company has been successful in the past in obtaining financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that the terms of such financing will be favorable to the Company. Failure to obtain additional financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of

December 31, 2021 - MD&A

further exploration and development of its projects with the possible loss of such properties. As such, there is a material uncertainty that casts significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Capital Resources and Outstanding Share Data

As at December 31, 2021 the Company had 45,084,320 shares outstanding and 4,190,000 options with a weighted average exercise price of $0.06. As at April 28, 2022, the Company’s outstanding options remain unchanged from December 31, 2021 while the Company’s issued and outstanding shares increased by 5,000,000 to 50,084,320, due to the 2022 financing. As part of this financing, the Company also issued 5,000,000 warrants which entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share at a price of $0.10, for a period of twelve months from closing.

Financial Instruments

As at December 31, 2021, the fair value of all of the Company’s financial instruments approximates their carrying value. Certain financial instruments are exposed to the following financial risks:

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss by the Company if a customer or third-party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s financial instruments that may have credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and receivables. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held by financial institutions with an A (low) credit rating. The Company may invest excess cash, if any, in guaranteed investment certificates until it is required. The Company’s receivables are mainly comprised of GST receivable and therefore credit risk is minimal. The Company has gross credit exposure at December 31, 2021 relating to cash and cash equivalents and receivables of $3,488 (2020 - $61,693).

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach is to forecast future cash flows to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations when due.

As at December 31, 2021, the Company is committed to current liabilities of $22,321 (2020 - $17,360) with a working capital deficit of $17,465 (2020 working capital - $44,333). The Company has assessed that the existing working capital at December 31, 2021 is not sufficient to fund the minimum expenditures the Company must incur to sustain its operations through 2022 and beyond.

Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, during 2020 the Government of Saskatchewan waived expenditure requirements for the current term and subsequent twelve months for active mineral claims and leases. As a result, as at December 31, 2021, all of the Company’s mineral property claims were in good standing with no requirement to incur expenditures on the Company’s mineral properties prior to December 31, 2021.

The further exploration, evaluation and/or development of exploration and evaluation properties in which the Company holds interests or which the Company acquires may

December 31, 2021 - MD&A

depend upon the Company's ability to obtain financing through equity issues or other forms of financing. Although the Company has been successful in the past in obtaining financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that the terms of such financing will be favorable. Failure to obtain additional financing on a timely basis may cause the Company to postpone exploration plans, forfeit rights in its properties or reduce or terminate its operations.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market prices are comprised of four types of risk: foreign currency risk, commodity price risk, interest rate risk and equity risk.

Foreign currency risk:

Foreign currency risk is the risk that a variation in exchange rates between the Canadian dollar and US dollar or other foreign currencies will affect the Company’s operations and financial results. The Company does not have significant exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuation since it is currently not producing.

Commodity price risk:

Commodity price risk is the risk that a variation in commodity price will affect the Company’s operations and financial results. The Company does not have significant exposure to commodity price fluctuations since it is currently not producing.

Interest rate risk:

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Company does not have any borrowings. Interest rate risk is limited to potential decreases on the interest rate offered on cash and cash equivalents held with chartered Canadian financial institutions. The Company considers this risk to be immaterial.

.

Equity risk:

The Company does not have any equity investments and is not exposed to equity risk.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Company’s accounting policies are described in Note 4 to the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. Certain of these policies involve critical accounting estimates as they require management to make particularly subjective or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain and because of the likelihood that materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. The uncertainties related to these areas could significantly impact the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

In preparing the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, significant judgments and estimations have been made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies. In particular, the significant areas of judgment and estimation uncertainty considered by management in preparing the consolidated financial statements

==> picture [68 x 17] intentionally omitted <==

6

December 31, 2021 - MD&A

are: exploration and evaluation expenditures, impairment and reversal of impairment on exploration and evaluation assets, including related reserve and resource estimates, estimations for environmental rehabilitation provisions and share-based payment transactions. These are discussed in more detail in Note 5 of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

A critical accounting estimate in determining the Company’s financial results relates to the recoverability of the carried amounts of exploration and evaluation assets. Management monitors these assets for indications of impairment and impairment reversal at each reporting date. Where impairment indicators exist, management will estimate the recoverable amount of these assets in comparison to the carrying values.

Accounting Changes

New IFRS standards, amendments and interpretations effective during the period

At the date of authorization of these consolidated financial statements, the IASB has not issued any new standards which became effective for the reporting period that would have a material impact on the Company.

Future Accounting Changes

At the date of authorization of the consolidated financial statements, the IASB has issued the following new Standard which is not yet effective for the relevant reporting periods.

IAS 16 – Property, Plant and Equipment

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment to prohibit deducting from the cost of an item of property, plant and equipment, any proceeds from selling items produced while bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. The proceeds from selling such items, and the cost of producing those items are to be recognized in profit and loss. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 with early adoption permitted. The amendment is to be applied retrospectively only to items of property, plant and equipment that are brought to the location and in a condition necessary for them to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management on or after the earliest period presented in the financial statements in the year in which the amendments are first applied. The amendment will not have a material financial impact at the time of adoption.

IAS 37 – Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets to specify which costs an entity includes in determining the cost of fulfilling a contract for the purpose of assessing whether the contract is onerous. The amendment specifies that the cost of fulfilling a contract comprises the costs that relate directly to the contract. Costs that relate directly to the contract can either be incremental costs of fulfilling the contract or an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts. The amendments are effective for contracts for which the Company has not yet fulfilled all its obligations on or after January 1, 2022 with early adoption permitted. The amendment will not have a material financial impact at the time of adoption.

There are no other IFRSs or IFRIC interpretations that have been issued and are not yet effective that are expected to have a material impact on the Company.

Outlook

The Company has focused exploration efforts on its northern Saskatchewan properties with known gold mineralization located in the La Ronge Gold Belt. The Company is assessing future options for the Company's Jojay, Munro Lake and Jasper gold properties. The Company will also continue to evaluate the potential for the acquisition of other mineral properties that fit the Company’s strategic direction.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company attempts to mitigate risks by identifying, assessing, reporting and managing risks of significance. The following are risks relating to the business of the Company. This information is only a summary of risks currently facing the Company based on its stage of development. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known may also impact the Company's operations. Management’s view on risks facing the Company will evolve as the Company’s stage of development progresses.

The principal risks faced by the Company during the exploration stage involve: Wescan's ability to obtain financing to further the exploration and development of exploration and evaluation properties in which Wescan holds interests; obtaining the required permits from various federal, provincial and local governmental authorities; and the ultimate economic feasibility of any future development projects.

The further development and exploration of exploration and evaluation properties in which Wescan holds interests or which Wescan acquires may depend upon Wescan's ability to obtain financing through equity financing, debt financing or other means. The Company does not have sufficient funds to put any of its property interests into production from its own financial resources. There is no assurance that Wescan will be successful in obtaining required financing as and when needed. Failure to obtain additional financing on a timely basis may cause the Company to postpone development plans, forfeit rights in its properties or reduce or terminate its operations. Reduced liquidity or difficulty in obtaining future financing could have an adverse impact on Wescan's future cash flows, earnings, results of operations and financial condition. The relative prices of applicable commodities and future expectations for such prices have a significant impact on the market sentiment for investment in mining and exploration companies.

The future operations of the Company, including exploration activities and potential development of its properties, require permits from various federal, provincial and local governmental authorities. Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment, or remedial actions. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, it is operating in compliance with all applicable rules and regulations. The Company utilizes qualified individuals, service providers and external consultants and maintains communications with governmental authorities to ensure that the Company is in compliance with all applicable rules and regulations.

December 31, 2021 - MD&A

All of Wescan's exploration and evaluation property interests are currently in the exploration stage and are without a known body of commercial ore. The exploration, development and production of precious metals are capital-intensive, subject to the normal risks and capital expenditure requirements associated with mining operations. While the rewards can be substantial if commercial quantities of precious metals are found, there can be no assurance that Wescan's past or future exploration efforts will be successful, that any production therefrom will be obtained or continued, or that any such production which is attempted will be profitable. To ensure that exploration procedures are being performed effectively and those results are interpreted and reported in a proper manner, management ensures that qualified individuals, service providers and external consultants are utilized in the verification and quality assurance of analytical results.
